Beats Vinyl New Releases - News

When we came across Taylor for the first time at On The Edge, we were all extremely excited about the amazing music we heard! Melodic sound spaces of sheer genius is how I would describe the sound that is Taylor.
Taylor is part of the Wigflex crew that includes the likes of Spam Chop and The Hizatron. These guys have got some serious sounds cooking in the kitchen!
The sound is Techno influenced Dubstep at its finest and Taylor is definitely one to watch for 2010.

The cream of the Exceptional roster meets a top flight selection of name remixers. "From Disco to Dubstep" is a wide ranging electronic exploration which joins many of the dots in an ever mutating series of scenes. Released as part of the label's 10th anniversary celebrations, the release features an eclectic selection of 16 remixes of artists that currently call Exceptional home.

Touching on disco, lounge, electronica, house, electro, breaks and dubstep, amongst the familiar names are Mock & Toof's exuberant, 80's-tinged deep house remix of Plej's "Borderline", impressive deep 4/4 action from Jimpster with his remix of "Awakening" , Tom Middleton's up for it remix of "All Over Again" by Blu Marten, the bazooka-bass dubstep of The Rogue Element with his remix of Nursery of Naughtiness' "Electrified", Reso and Raffertie trading punches, and Planas' drastically different electronica restyling of Culprit 1's "Screamer". And the soulful dubby rework of Tubbs' "New Way of Life" by Marlinspike (aka hot property Red Rack'em/Hot Coins), featuring the chocolatey vocals of Joe Dukie from Fat Freddy's Drop.

The release is backed by a full on PR campaign from Rocketscience and reviews are expected in all major dance mags and online sites. It's one helluva collection and comes in a special mirrorboard wallet.

Strictly limited edition and just check that CRAZY dealer price!! Once it's gone it's gone!

From our Producer No.2 album we've selected dbridge's slo-mo d'n'b production 'ZX81' for two very special treatments. The remixes are from Shed & Ramadanman. Berlin's Shed is a consumate producer & engineer of techno reknowned for his explorations into dub on labels like Ostgut, Hardwax & his own Soloaction. Here he works dbridges track into a stunning, brooding monster of a track driven by a gloriously filthy sub-bass and alleviated with an uplifting skeewed synth breakdown. The remix brings together elements of techno, dubstep, & d 'n' b in formiddable fashion. ...An absolute killer! On the flip Ramadanman drops a typically accomplished piece, fusing styles to dramatic effect. After recent heavyweight releases on Hemlock & Aus he once again comes correct working a heavy block percussive rhythm wrapped around sublime bass drops and intensified by motorised keys for a true heads-down effect. Both tracks have been favoured and played by Martyn, Scuba, Peverlist, James Blake, Actress & Instra:mental. Not forgetting that we've had the vinyl mastered and cut at Dubplates and Mastering, so you know the spirit is in the groove.

Emporer Machine, Samoyed and Sam mixes

J-Wow aka Joao aka Lil Jon is the main producer of Buraka Som Sistema

Second release for the young Dutch act Sinister Souls, following a debut on Excision's Rottun. These two 'Borderline' tracks are of the slow-moving, heavy and scraping dubstep kind, and somewhat shows well how the whole dark d'n'b sensibilities can translate into this genre.

On the title track 'Conversea' the singer, producer and labelowner Taprikk Sweezee unfolds his ~irresistible soulvocals on top of dark bassgrounds and crispy broken beats

not released,sorry!

PICTURE DISC'

A Side: Dubbed Out Mix AA Side: Full Vocal Mix (Explicit)

YACHT will be releasing a new single - "The Afterlife" - on 19th April, lifted from their acclaimed album "See Mystery Lights"... The track comes with a blazing remix from THE XX. The single will be released as a 7" picture disc featuring the alluring visages of Jona and Claire...

Gracious to the last, 7even offer a well-deserved opening to Joaan, a talented newcomer from Nantes, ironically label head Greg Gouty's home town.
A more than worthy addition to the 7even family, currently flying high off the back of the F album 'Energy distortion'. 'Splendor in the grass' manages
to build sheer beatdown vibes for gathering summer evenings, over a cannily deployed half-speed drum and bass simply tailor made for dBridge fans.
Gently add a skweezed synth at 1:30 and some emotive strings before some covert riffage turns this into a full-on main room joint, future vibes wild out!
'115 State' picks it up on a revived electro tip, slightly cagier with dubbed-out delayed figures across a smart detroit transphixion - big shit!
- support already from Mary Ann Hobbs / Laurent Garnier with many more in time

A whirlwind of controversy surrounds the talent of Borgore and its not hard to understand why. You could describe him as the marmite of Dubstep! His relentless basslines will rip your stomach apart, but don't be fooled by the in your face music that is Borgore. He is a very talented producer and by taking the time to listen to his music, you can hear that this man is a talented musician and knows his way around the studio.

On the Edge have been on form of late and have had some cracking releases. The DFRNT album late 2009 was arguably one of the best albums to surface from the Dubstep scene that year and crossed into paths some Dubstep artists have never entered. The Scottish born IDM producer that is DFRNT is pure talent and this release shows you just how consistent his music is. 3 tracks that should be food to sooth!

For the third instalment of the OpenEarz journey through the full spectrum of dubstep sounds, Dom Hz supplies a diverse 3 track EP showcasing his technically gifted production and representing his broad music tastes. Mist opens the EP with warm pads and enchanting atmospherics. The intro sets the pace, but doesn't prepare you for the plunging drop and sub bass pressure! This is a high calibre skanker with a weightline ready to test any system! Easing nicely into the flipside Dom constructs infectious jazz melodies and lounge vibes for Elevator Skank, bringing through influences from house, jungle and dub to create a warm roller, definitely a summer vibes track!
To seal the deal, Dom drops a laid back gem. Without You is laced with haunting yet soulful vocal stabs and soothing, memorable melodies - soulful modern dubstep and nothing short of brilliance from our third Manchester artist. DJ support from: BunZer0, Joker, Von D, Mensah, Numbernin6, DFRNT, DJ Madd, Phaeleh, XI, Beezy, J:Kenzo, G Double, Crises, Kryptik:Elementz

What can we say about these two remixes of Hektagons "Running Through" (originally out on Audio Phreaks with a deep Elemental remix)~~~~

we have heard some absolutely amazing stuff from Culprate and we think he has produced some of the most cutting edge music we have heard this year!

Next up on the unstoppable machine that is Sub Slayers is the first in a series of artists focused releases which allows for a slew of
beats ranging from dubstep thru to urban fused breaks.
Heading up this monster package is Mustang which proves outright that I.D. is on the ball when it comes to bassline rollers. Fresh Air is a true classic that rides the balance between Dubstep and Breaks in true I.D. form! Tell Ya once again see's I.D. show just how the Sub
Slayers sound fuses the boundaries in a dirty bassline fashion. Slope is the for all the smokers out there; deep, melodical and bass heavy!
But what about the man himself~ Well after two critically acclaimed albums and dozens of successful singles, I.D., both solo and with
regular conspirator Baobinga, now pulls together fresh influences to create a brand new style, fusing dubstep, garage, ragga, house and
hip-hop, seen most recently through the new album 'Bass Music Sessions', the worldwide success of their blog 'Bass Music Blog', and the numerous aliases covering the whole bass music spectrum.
Another Sub Slayers classic in the making...
